"I saw missed assignments, I saw missed tackles, I saw lapses in concentration, I saw bad penalties, I saw things that were inexcusable," said Cassity, the Cardinals' defensive coordinator.

"You can't have a situation where nobody lines up outside to defend a receiver. You can't ever let something like that happen again. Our job as coaches is to get all that fixed and put our players in situations where they can succeed.

"If we have to simplify things, that's what we're going to do. But before I point the finger at any of my players, I look in the mirror at myself. It's my responsibility."

Nice for the coach to say but he cant strap it up and play the game too.
The players have to execute on the field.

One thing I do know about defensive football from 20-years of playing football myself.......you can make up for a tremendous ammount of mistakes if all 11 players play balls out and fly to the ball and play to the whistle.

Offense needs timing.
a missed block, run the wrong route, running back goes the wrong way can kill a play dead, defense is a different animal.

Defense basically just has to find the ball & stop it.

hustle can make up for a lot of errors.
